History WesternAnimation / AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers

* GoneHorriblyRight: The Marshmallow Trees. Oh, good lord, the Marshmallow Trees. Zozo, Niko, Buzzwang, and the Kiwi kids deliver a group of the trees the episode is named for to a farming planet. The trees are planted, and before the day is over, they've gone from seedlings to adult trees twenty times their normal size and are already sprouting fruit...which comes in the size of marshmallows that are also twenty times normal size. The next day, the ''entire countryside'' is covered with seeds from the Marshmallow Trees...which proceed to grow every bit as fast as the first bunch! Needless to say, HilarityEnsues.

* {{Badass}}: All the Rangers qualify. Together, they form a BadassCrew. Zozo and Zachary's families also qualify for BadassFamily.

* DarkerAndEdgier: Compared to its contemporaies like ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'' and ''WesternAnimation/ThunderCats'', and even rival SpaceWestern series like ''WesternAnimation/{{BraveStarr}}'' and ''Anime/{{Saber Rider|AndTheStarSheriffs}}''. Several of the writers had backgrounds in horror writing, and as with many shows that aired in first-run syndication, the writing had more creative freedom. Many of the critic reviews for the series point out the contrast in tone from other cartoons of the era. See WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids on [[YMMV/AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers the YMMV page]].

Reason: Maybe it didn't, maybe it did. Either way, this line is irrelevant in my opinion. To me, it implies the whole "animated shows are glorified toy commercials" idea, which isn't really fair, IMO (and which is also another story). I mean, Inspector Gadget didn't have any backing from toy companies either. This may be TV Tropes, but we also need to be fair about what we're talking about.
